Joe Maddon planned to meet with MLB executive Joe Torre Sunday concerning his ejection from Game 1 of the NL Championship Series on Saturday, as well as his post-game comments.

Maddon was ejected in the seventh inning after arguing an overturned call at home plate. Dodgers' baserunner Charlie Culberson was originally called out on a throw from left-fielder Kyle Schwarber. After a video review, MLB umpires ruled that Cubs catcher Willson Contreras had violated MLB's obstruction rule by not leaving a clear path for Culberson to the plate.

"I really enjoy my conversations with (Torre)," Maddon said (via the Chicago Tribune). "He's so calm and gets both sides, so I respect what he has to say."

Maddon was still upset after the game, once again voicing his dislike for baseball's so-called "Buster Posey Rule."

"I saw a great baseball play," Maddon said after the game. "I saw (Kyle) Schwarber come in on a grounded ball, use his feet perfectly, make a low, great throw to the plate that could have been cut off, had we needed it to be, but did not because we chose to have it go to home plate. Perfect skip-hop, great play by Contreras. The ball kind of taking Willson towards the line, towards foul territory. He catches the ball, and his technique was absolutely 100 percent perfect."

After sleeping on the issue, Maddon still felt the same way ahead of Sunday's NLCS Game 2.

"The only thing I'll say is the more I watch it, it was a tremendous baseball play on our part," Maddon said Sunday. "I could not be happier with the technique, and you can also argue about the bad base running on their side.

"They got rewarded for a wide turn, and we don't get rewarded for a perfect footwork in left field and a great catch and tag at home plate. That's what I saw."
